April takes the little four and five to the town.

When she met someone from the same village on the road, she took the initiative to say hello, "Aunt Zhang, morning!" ”

Aunt Zhang was a little surprised, in the past, when she was weak and helpless and spoke quietly, not only took the initiative to say hello, but her voice was quite loud. Sounds energetic.

"April, you're taking your younger siblings to town?"

"Yes! Uncle was kind-hearted, and seeing that our family was in difficulty, he took the initiative to repay the money he owed before. No, I rushed to the town to buy some food and grab some medicine for my mother. ”

Yes?

Aunt Zhang is even more unusual.

Yuan Chenggui and his family are famous for picking and picking, and they will take the initiative to repay the money.

It's really, in broad daylight, and the sun is coming out in the west.

Along the way, when I met someone I knew in April, I had to take the initiative to say hello, by the way: "Uncle is kind-hearted and takes the initiative to repay the money." "Words like that.

The people did not believe.

But he couldn't stand Yuan April's vow.

If you say too much, there will always be people who believe it.

When these people came back from the town, the whole village knew about it, and it reached the ears of Yuan Chenggui's family.

"Did she really say that?" Old Man Yuan was skeptical.

"It's spread all over the village. As soon as I walked out, everyone said that I cared about my family and took the initiative to repay the money, so that the orphans and widows could have something to eat. Dad, do you see this? Yuan Chenggui was a little undecided.

Yuan April took the initiative to promote his good name, what to do? What is the purpose?

He couldn't figure it out.

"That's a good thing!" Old Man Yuan defined the character in one sentence, "You can't write two Yuan characters in one stroke." April is ruthless, and she did a good job. Tell your mother-in-law, and in the future, she will follow April's words to the outside world, and she can't bear to see their family starve to death, so she takes care of her family affection and takes the initiative to repay the money. In these years, everyone has a difficulty. As a family, you have to help if you need to help. ”

"Is this appropriate?" Yuan Chenggui hesitated.

Old Man Yuan snorted coldly, "Of course it's appropriate!" Do you feel uncomfortable that we are all led by the nose by April? You have to endure the discomfort. A family of young and old, but if there is someone whose brain spins faster than hers, it should be her who will be uncomfortable. ”

This dumb loss is a certainty.

……

Got to the town.

In April, I went to send a letter to my father and my eldest brother, hoping that they would receive it.

After that, in April, he took Xiao Si and Xiao Wu to the market to buy rice, flour and oil, and then went to the meat stall to buy five catties of meat.

Then I went to the pharmacy to get medicine, and I went to the cloth village to buy two pieces of cloth.

Since my father and eldest brother left home in the army, the family of four has not worn new clothes.

Primary 4 and 5 can also pick up old clothes from older siblings to wear.

April could only wear a shorter shirt, and her feet and necks were exposed.

Passing by the iron shop, I saw that the iron pot only cost 300 yuan a piece, and I was moved by April. In a few years, an iron pot will rise to two thousand big bucks.

Buy now, buy is earn.

Purchasing all the materials needed, the three sisters and brothers went home happily.

Yuan Li was looking at home, and when she saw the children coming back, she hurriedly greeted her.

"Uncle's family didn't come to look for trouble, did they?" April was the first to ask.

"No, it's quiet. However, there are rumors in the village that your uncle's family is kind-hearted and takes the initiative to repay the money. Their family is very ruthless, and they can't wait for our family to starve to death, and it must be deliberate for Uncle Ling's family to be rumored. ”

"I let this happen." April said.

"Huh?"

Yuan Li was a little confused, "Why is this?" Their family owes money and doesn't pay it back, and you still talk to their family? ”

April explained: "I did this to silence my uncle's family. Otherwise, they will definitely not be willing to pay back, and sooner or later there will be trouble. ”

When Yuan Li heard this, he couldn't help but wonder, "Can it work?" ”

April said, "It should work." The uncle's family has a good face, and I give them enough face, thinking that I can extinguish the anger. ”

Yuan Li asked quietly, "What did you do last night?" ”

"It's better for my mother not to know. Just remember that I am a convincing man. ”

Yuan Li saw that he couldn't tell the truth, so he stopped thinking and began to inspect the objects in the back basket.

"How did you buy an iron pot? Waste of money. ”

"The iron pot at home has been used for many years. Maybe a hole will be broken at some point. April said casually.

Yuan Li wanted to say a word and spend money indiscriminately, but he still didn't say it.

Bought it all, so be it.

She continued to rummage through the basket.

"With the cloth, make a new set of clothes for each of your three sisters and brothers. So much meat, save some food, take the well water to town. You also bought soybeans! What are soybeans used for? ”

"Soybeans are very useful. Mother rest, I'm in the kitchen. ”

"Okay. I'll go and cut your clothes. That's what my mother is capable of. ”

Yuan Li's needlework is excellent, and she relied on one-handed needlework to become a good married girl.

This would make her in excellent spirits, and she would not look like a chronically ill person except for being thin.

Yuan Li is really sick!

She's really pretending to be sick too!

Very contradictory!

But it's also true.

Since Yuan Li gave birth to twins, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu, his body has been weak. Her husband Yuan Chengwei took care of her with all his heart and didn't let her do any work.

Yuan Li enjoys this care.

In her mother's family, she is the eldest and has been taken care of by her older brothers and sisters since she was a child. Married, continued to be taken care of by her husband's eldest son.

She is used to this care, used to not worrying about everything.

So, when her husband and eldest son left home from the army, all the responsibilities were pressed on herself, and she was stunned all of a sudden.

The heavy responsibility of supporting the family and taking care of the children, she can't afford it!

What to do?

So she fell ill and needed to stay in bed for a long time. It seems that in this way, she can escape all responsibility.

Even if something happens at home, she's a sick person, and you can't blame her, right!

Yuan April didn't understand all this in the past.

Now, she sees it clearly. It is also clear that the mother is empty, and illness is the secondary cause, mainly because of hunger.

The fact that my mother's health is not good is not as serious as everyone thinks.

Just ate two meals of white flour steamed buns, and the whole person was refreshed, and he was no longer bedridden all day.

Come to think of it, I was also hungry in the past, so I just lay in bed and didn't move, so I wasn't so hungry.

April didn't intend to debunk the truth.

Two meals a day, not only white flour steamed buns, but also meat.

Meat!

I haven't known the taste of meat for more than a year.

For fear that his younger brothers and sisters would eat bad stomachs, he didn't dare to do more in April, so he only cut a pound of meat to satisfy his hunger first.

A pot of stew with white rice is the happiest thing in the world.

"Sister, will we still eat meat tomorrow?"

"Eat!"

"What about the day after tomorrow?"

"Eat!"

"Sister is so good."

April rubbed the head of Xiao Si and Xiao Wu, "After eating, Xiao Si helped light the fire, and Xiao Wu was responsible for carrying firewood." Whether you can eat meat every day in the future depends on whether you work hard or not. ”

"I'm trying!"

"I'm working hard too!"
